Abstract:
Chapter 3 discusses how successful delivery of external beam radiotherapy involves a number of complex processes beginning with the decision by the clinical oncologist to use radiotherapy as part of the patient’s cancer management, through the preparation and planning of the patient’s treatment, to the verification of the patient position and radiation dose delivered at the time of treatment.

Abstract:
Design principles for radiotherapy facilities using X-ray, γ‎-ray, and electron beams are described, especially the requirements for primary and secondary shielding and maze and door entrances. These features are illustrated with reference to the shielded rooms (bunkers) required for linear accelerators, and example calculations are included for shielding and maze design to achieve required dose constraints. The impact of new clinical practices with intensity modulated radiation fields and flattening filter-free operation is also considered. Engineering controls and features for safe operation are described, and good practice in bunker construction and the provision of services to avoid weaknesses in the shielding is outlined. The principle shielding requirements for TomoTherapyTM, CyberKnifeTM, Gamma KnifeTM units, and kilovoltage X-ray units are also described. Finally, personnel monitoring, commissioning surveys, and environmental monitoring in radiation protection management in radiotherapy are discussed. Data for calculating shielding thickness and X-ray scatter for maze design are provided.

Abstract:
Chapter 7 assesses the role of radiation therapy in rectal cancer, with emphasis on preoperative imaging, patient selection for preoperative chemoradiotherapy (CRT) and short-course preoperative radiotherapy (SCPRT), and postoperative chemoradiation. We describe the various available planning techniques. More conformal techniques such as intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), volume-modulated arc therapy (VMAT), and brachytherapy are also described. In addition, chemoradiation and radiotherapy as an adjunct to local excision and endoluminal irradiation are also reviewed.

Abstract:
Principles of radiation oncology outlines the physical and biological effects of ionising radiation, and its use in clinical oncology. Radiobiology, examining the response of tissue to ionising radiation, is described with regards to normal and malignant tissues. The effect of fractionation, the delivery of radiotherapy in a series of repeated exposures, is examined. The damaging effects on normal tissues are considered, particularly nonreversible late effects including carcinogenesis. Therapeutic exposure to ionising radiation is contrasted between radical and palliative radiotherapy. The physical properties of ionising radiation beams are described for superficial x-rays, megavoltage x-rays, and electrons. The process of treatment planning is summarised through beam dosimetry, target and critical organ outlining, dose planning, treatment verification, prescription and delivery. Computerised tomography is used for outlining and for verification, using cone beam CT. 0ther methods for image guided radiotherapy include fiducial markers. Increasingly intensity modulated radiotherapy is proving beneficial in reducing normal tissue damage during radical treatment. Stereotactic radiotherapy is used in the radical treatment of small unresectable malignancies. The clinical use of electron therapy, brachytherapy and intraoperative radiotherapy is described. Nuclear medicine uses unsealed radionuclides in imaging primary malignancies and their metastases, and in targeted radiotherapy. Examples include PET scanning, bone scanning, and radio iodine therapy. Whole body irradiation is used to improve outcomes after high-dose chemotherapy with stem cell or bone marrow transplantation.
